QUOTIENT function

QUOTIENT(Numerator, Denominator) QUOTIENT(Numerator; Denominator)

Numerator

Number or { Number }

The numerator, which is divided by the denominator.

Denominator

Number or { Number }

The denominator, which divides the numerator.

Returns

Number or { Number }

The integer portion of a division operation.

Returns the integer (whole number) portion of a division. QUOTIENT(5, 2)QUOTIENT(5; 2) returns 2.

Unlike the / operator, this function only returns integers, not decimal numbers. 5 / 25 / 2 returns 2.5.

The remainder left by QUOTIENT may be accessed through the MOD function. QUOTIENT(5, 2)QUOTIENT(5; 2) returns 2 and MOD(5, 2)MOD(5; 2)) returns 1 (2 * 2 + 12 * 2 + 1).

Examples

QUOTIENT(5, 2)QUOTIENT(5; 2)

Returns 2.

5 / 25 / 2

Returns 2.5.

QUOTIENT(300, 30)QUOTIENT(300; 30)
